If the Capitals' playoff run comes to an endMonday in Game 6, it likely won't be because of Brian Sutter Jersey Alex Ovechkin.The Capitals captain and the greatest goal-scorer of all time has had a marvelous 2018 Stanley Cup playoffs, and it continuedSaturday night against the Lightning. Ovechkin scored (again)his 11thgoal of the postseason, matching a career high. It was also his 21st point, again equalinga career mark.His goal in Game 5, which cut Washington's deficit to 3-2 in the closing minutes, was part of a Herculean effort by Ovechkin over the final four minutes and 48 seconds of regulation.MORE: From that point on, Ovechkintwice made brief stops on the Evgenii Dadonov Jersey bench rests of just 12 and 8 seconds while helogged 4:28 of the game's final 4:48, which included scoring the 6-on-5 goal to cut Washington's deficit in half.Of the final 4:48, ' Alexander Ovechkin was on the ice for 4:28 (including a shift of 2:14).He spent 12 seconds on the bench from 17:26-17:38 and just eight seconds after his goal (18:24-18:32). Wowza. Marshall Haim (@mhaim1934) Ovechkin was actually having a very quiet night up to that point; he had three shot attempts (and one that rang the cro sbar), but had yet to register a shot on goal. In the first 55 minutes and 12 seconds of Game 5, Ovechkin had played 15:48, Nick Seeler Jersey not exactly major usage for a player of his caliber (the Capitals also had zero power plays on the game, taking away a situation he's used invirtually 100 percent of the time)."Obviously (the Lightning) are checking (against Ovechkin), they've got their best D-pair; they're doing a good job on him," said head coach Barry Trotz. "But he'll find ways; trust me. He gets his shots."But after being on Brandon Saad Jersey the ice for about 27 percent of the available minutes before the final stretch, Ovechkin was on the ice for over 93 percent of the final 288 seconds.And Ovechkin wasn't just a pedestrian in that time, firing four shot attempts, three on goal, one that scored, and also registering a hit.His effort was in vain, though, as the Lightning held on to that lead, even when itshrunk to 3-2, and took Game 5 by that score. After going up 2-0 in the series, the Capitals have now lost three straight, and for the first time in these playoffs will face an elimination game when they play host to the Lightning in Michael Jordan Jersey Game 6 Monday at Capital One Arena.
